Velvet Rush

Brown Ale - Imperial / Double

Borrowing elements from both high-end craft cocktails and moody jazz clubs, Velvet Rush takes the bourbon barrel-aged brown ale up an octave with free-flowing notes of coffee, chocolate and vanilla extract. Milk sugar aids in weaving together this complex tapestry of flavors to create a unique sipping experience that really ties the room together.

Coffee takes over this one. Sweetness from the barrel aging but limited vanilla.

Imperial brown ale, brown ales lig ik nu niet meteen wakker van maar Founders heeft me al wel vaker aangenaam verrast. Deze is zeker ok maar niet mijn ding. Veel koffie, cacao en vanille. Nogal zwaar en vrij zoet. Verdienstelijk

Many contrasts, clear notes of the bourbon barrel-aging, great brown ale

Smooth. Excellent flavor balance between the adjuncts and the base malts. Def on the sweeter side. Good stuff. Highly drinkable considering the 11.1 abv.

I didn’t taste velvet, more like a watered down coffee with the grounds.

Meer een 4.15. Conclusie: brown ales van Founders zijn erg nice

On sniff and first sip, the coffee hits like mild jalapeno, kinda pushes any chocolate or barreling outta the profile. The barrel does show up late, and gets more prominent as we go. Decent, but not quite to expex, and following several *tough* acts.

De geur was direct vreselijk. Totaal men ding niet. Na de eerste slok dacht ik word voor de gootsteen. Maar hij is redelijk zoet en dat red hem daarvan.

Koffie met Haagse hopjes en vanille brownie. Heel lekker. Duidelijk het verschil te proeven tussen imperial stout en imperial brown.

Nose is coffee and brown sugar. Taste is heavily spiced. I get cinnamon, vanilla and brown sugar. At the end the chocolate comes through. Throughout I also get a taste of coffee. Can also taste vanilla sweetness from the barrel. It’s nice and light.

Tasty at first, but bit of a strange lingering aftertaste…a bit sour.

Brown ale tres corpulente, pas d’overdose de sucre la gourmandise est délicate mais bien présente. Une réelle douceur des arômes et un abv bien caché, pas de côté boozy. Founders n’en finira pas de m’épater

i was first going to judge this lower because it wasn’t as “velvety” as i thought it would be, but i realized it’s not a “stout”, which that velvety mouthfeel rly comes out in. this is an interesting ale, with “stout-y” characteristics.
